Quiet life..

My life is quiet even though every day I am busy running here and there..

However, during this fasting  month, my daily activities focus at home.. Sleeping, reciting Quran, sleeping again, cooking preparing breakfasting and praying.

My intention is not to cook to many dishes coz my hubby is not really keen of eating a variety of food.. Just some rice with one chicken or fish dish and drink.. Aurora is the same with her dad.. Simple appetite and me.. Anything but not my cooking.. I am bored..but I don't want to buy outside.. It's not good and not worth the heat and money at Ramadhan market.. 

So the solution.. I asked my brother to cook my favourite dish and invited him and my sister in law to breakfasting at my house this dawn.. Hehe.. It's settled then.. 

So in order to please my brother, I prepared prawn fritter with peanut sauce for him.. His favourite..

That is it.. Ramadhan Mubarak to all.. May we be granted Al Qadar..

New year.. New hope..

The year 2024 had begun 23 days ago.. Even though it's almost a month already, I still want to wish Happy New Year to all my silent readers. There is no need to say anything after reading any article in this blog because I keep highlighting interesting things happening on my life here for me.. My self.. As I travel this long and winding road of my life.


Am had finished his Viva before December ends. He passed and that wrapped up his Master class for good. After 2 long years it gave us a relief especially to his mother. Immediately he began sending his CV everywhere even at IOI City Mall looking for job. He attended a lot of interviews online and offline desperately secure him money to pay rent and living expenses. Luckily I finished his car instalment after I retired.


Finally, last week he got a job.. Near his rented house and this job is suitable with his qualification.. Mechanical engineer.. I thank Allah The Greatest for this happy news. I am finally at peace for almost all my dreams are fulfilled.. Except for some of my personal wishes.. 


O Allah The Almighty..

Only You knows me.. Only You helps me all these years.. I am supposed to retire this year but You helped me to take the jump and retired early.. I have enjoyed my self and help those needed my help.. Now I look forward to be closer tu You than ever.. 


Alhamdulillah.. Thank You Allah

Year 2023 is closing..




Time walks so slow if you are waiting for something but moves fast if you not expecting anything.. 

Year end coming soon.. However for me, I feel time stands still.. Only the days passed by, but I am stuck somewhere in the past..

Recently I remember my old times.. My childhood.. My old house in Pahang.. My mom.. My sister.. My dad..

Sibling connection is going stronger.. I went to visit Yong's grave.. And cried a lot there.. I could not help my self coz I missed her.. So much..

My only brother is coming back to Tapah for good.. He has been telling me his intention since January but I thought he was not serious.. He had a house in Johor..two companies..married a Johorian but wants to be close to me and my sister here..

Apparently, he is serious.. He sold his house there and discussed with his partner to sell his share.. But the partner refused..they still want him, needs his expertise for the business.. 

I went around to search for his house, to rent while looking for a piece of land to build his dream house near his siblings.. 

Such a very big step but he is adamant to spend his old years with us.. 

Welcome home dearest brother.. Abang E.. 

We always love you and cant  wait for us to grow old together...here.

A reminiscence




Thirteen years ago, my husband drove me to Ipoh for my doctor's appointment due to my pregnancy. I took a week off prior to my maternity leave because I was so big and panting every time I walked. I was due in 2 weeks time.

The appointment was in the afternoon so we went to have lunch at nearby cafe. While waiting for food to be served, I felt a cramp on my tummy. I told my husband but he was really ignorant and had no idea of why. 

After lunch we went to see doctor and he was surprised looking at the result. He asked me for how long I had this stomach cramp. I said few days already. My God, he said I was already in labour!


To cut short, at 9 pm that day, I delivered a healthy 3.4 kilos baby by cesarean section. And today we are going to celebrate her 13 years birthday. Seem like ages but I could still remember her sweet heaven smell when I hugged and kissed her for the first time.


I love you my seewty pie.. And forever I will. 


Till then

Allah is The Greatest..

 


There is no words to describe my feelings looking with my owns eyes, at the Ka'abah black boxy building for the first time ever in my life..


Five days before that we finally arrived at Medina Al Munawarrah as part of our pilgrimage. It was very warm.. 47 degree Celcius..when I stepped out of the air-conditioned bus that picked us at the airport. 


However, after 5 days there I was sad leaving Medina, sad leaving Prophet Muhammad and sad leaving my mum in Baqi.. I way shocked of the warm climate but I have fallen in love with Nabawi Mosque and the climate did not bother me.. 


Five days at Mecca Al Muqqaramah I did 3 umrah.. One for me, second for my mum and third time for my sis.. Yong. My hubby did for my dad and his mum.

It was a blessing from Allah the Almighty that both of us were healthy.. No sickness and we were always on time for our prays.. And my husband was amazing.. Almost every prayer he gotten into Rawdah and it was the opposite of me.. I just managed to get into it twice and did not stay inside long enough because there were too many people inside.


I wish I can go there again.. And I wish I can die there to join my mum and to be near my beloved Prophet. 


Till then..

An invitation..

 Since I was small, I had dreamt of getting the invitation.. From Allah to visit His home..

I had hoped to perform Hajj for so long but the waiting list is still impossible for my turn to come.. 

I prayed to Allah many many times.. Then I braced my self, withdrew my savings and paid the umrah travel agent.. Here we come.. 

Dear Allah the Almighty.. 

I am not rich.. I don't have much money.. But here is my part to visit Your Home.. To pay highest tribute and visit my Prophet as all other Muslims must do... At least once a life time.. And to visit my mum in  Maala.. She passed away there some 23 years ago.. 

May You ease our journey this August .. Truly.. I don't mind staying there forever since I had experience everything.. and I had dreamt to join my mother in her forever home..

A friend..

 I did not know how I got the mood of making 5 kinds of raya cookies.. Simple cookies but 5? New record for me coz never before I managed to bake cookies.. I used to buy last time.. May be because after 2 years, this was the time all of us were around for Eid.

We had simple celebration..going to Sg Buluh after the guys came back form the mosque.. Then rushed home to my sister's house..

The next day I had cooked some dishes then my sister came..and so far that were the two houses we went for Eid.

A week after that I had one day for Eid fast and going for the second day. However at 9 am I felt something wrong with my tummy and I started to go to toilet. That day, I spent most of my time in the toilet and it did not stop until 10 pm that day. I was week but I refused to go hospital. I know if  had gone to hospital, I would surely be warded. 

The next day my husband got a cal with a very bad news. His best friend since he was young had passed away his his hotel room in Thailand during a vacation. The terrible ordeal started on how to bring the body back to Kemaman to be buried. Going for vacation is fun when you are alive and healthy but when the opposite happened, it would a nightmare. Finally after 3 days they managed to bring him back.. 

My husband was quiet and seen looking out far in his thought after that. He was his close friend more like losing a brother.. Al Fatihah.
